IV ISSUE OF EMPLOYEE TURNOVER RATE IN 3 AGENCIES:

1, Situation:

The question raised:

- Is the employee turnover rate at [agency name] high and what positions

do they usually hold?

Interview responses:

a ADT Creative:

- Mr Thang Phan - Designer:

“I see a high employee turnover rate in all positions at ADT, creative is 50-50, often having to recruit interns to help out This is not only the case at ADT but also at most agencies At ADT, we can keep interns for 1-2 years, while other agencies have more frequent turnovers.”

- Ms Phuong Linh - Creative:

“Based on my work experience at various agencies and my observation during

my time here, ADT staff tend to stay for a while, but only for about 2 years for core positions and 6 months-1 year for interns I have been here for over 2 years and have seen significant personnel changes in various departments; most of the people who joined the company at the same time with me have been replaced by new faces.”

b 5S Consulting & Media:

- Ms Trang Nguyen - COO 5S Media:

"Executive-level employees at 5S usually resign after about 2-3 years, when the personnel system has stabilized and they have received a considerable amount

of company training Freelancers and trainees who perform crucial tasks on projects also tend to resign after 3-6 months This creates difficulty for the company in finding replacement personnel, who need to have both professional

competence and the ability to adapt quickly to the company's culture and receive and maintain the projects left behind by former staff in a short period.”

c Simple Team:

- Ms Bich Ngoc - Strategy team leader:

“Simple Team currently has about 20 staff members and some collaborators, with 50% being part-time student workers and the remaining 50% being full-time employees Simple Team staff is all young people who are either students or have just graduated within 6 months to 1 year They tend to change jobs frequently, as they learn new skills from the company and gain more experience, they then want to develop their careers at other companies to learn more I see this turnover rate happening in all departments of the company.”

=> CONCLUSION: The employee turnover rate in agencies is currently quite high, and this has become characteristic of the fragmented industry with intense competition Specifically:

- For positions such as Fresher and Intern, employees do not have a strong commitment to the company, and the turnover rate after 3 months to 1 year is as high as 80-90% Only a few cases are promoted to higher positions, such as official employees tend to stay for a longer period of time

- Regarding Mid-level positions, the turnover rate is also considerable, at around 50%

- This phenomenon happens in every department in an agency

2, Reasons:

The question raised by the group is :

- What do you think causes this situation?

Interview responses:

a, ADT Creative:

- Mr Thang Phan - Designer:

"The reasons I usually see for quitting a job are pressure, finding a better job, and poor health Some people also experience psychological problems and lose interest in their current jobs due to a large workload and undesirable salaries."

- Ms Phuong Linh - Creative:

"There is a lot of demanding work while the job itself is not well-paid Students often take more time off because they cannot balance a heavy workload with their studies."

b, 5S Consulting & Media:

- Ms Trang Nguyen - COO 5S Media:

"I think the first reason is the characteristics of the mid-level position These are people with experience and knowledge who have been trained and have experienced many jobs with large customers During the waiting period for promotion to a senior position, they are easily persuaded by headhunters or invitations from other companies with better benefits and working environments

The second reason is that employees may feel unsuitable for the work environment After a period of bonding, they may become bored with the work environment and want to change to another company or position to learn more and experience something new

The third reason is a lack of recognition They can do the work of a senior position, but the recognition they receive is at the junior level Without recognition for their contributions or opportunities for advancement, they will not have the motivation to work, leading to reduced productivity and loss of motivation

Finally, the employees at 5S are currently handling a large workload They have

to take on the tasks assigned by seniors, guide freelancers, trainees, and even juniors who are just joining the team Too much work and expectations from bosses and colleagues can create mental stress for them

As for freelancers and trainees, the main problem that I see is that they receive low salaries, have no career advancement plan, and have to take on many tasks compared to a part-time job Sometimes, they are forced to work overtime without pay and find it difficult to balance work and study.”

c, Simple Team:

- Ms Bich Ngoc - Strategy team leader:
